No photos, unfortunately - but I've seen my first ever grass snake in "the wild" yesterday! I'm so chuffed, it was a beauty, too.
Went to see our friends, and they always had grass snakes in their compost heap, so I was bugging them to show me where. It was cloudy and dull, so I never really thought we'd see one, but they had a wheelbarrow upside down on the top of the compost heap, and when we lifted it, there was a coiled grassie under there!
Only saw him for a couple of seconds, then he shot down his escape tunnel. There were many tunnels on the compost heap, and I could see flattened little areas in front of the entrances, where I guess they would have been basking on sunny days, curled up.
Wish I had my camera ready... |

Another friend has got a resident grass snake that he often sees in his pond, he e mailed me some fantastic pics... but he was wondering where his goldfish are disappearing, and was blaming the heron, tee hee.
shouldnt laugh at his fish being eaten, but i did! |
